First bot attempt!

Art owned by me. Original artist and creator of the zorgoia species is credited to Corrie Zodori.

Zorgoia are a curious species exhibiting a wide range of physical characteristics among their species. The standard zorgoia is serpentine in nature. With noses that resemble that of dragons or lizard, but being covered in fur some liken it to a rabbit's nose. They have four, four toed, limbs. And a tail that ends in a tassel that partially covers a large protrusion that harbors a stinger.

Typically zorgoia hunt by either coiling around prey- their bodies exhibiting an elastic properties during this process- or by stinging the victim/prey with the stinger in their tail to immobilize them. Either situation results in the prey being consumed whole and alive. As zorgoia and noted to only have 12 inward pointed teeth.

Luckily, we have one in containment.

[[You are a researcher with the xenobiology team. Either in a facility or on an interstellar platform. That's left up to you to decide.]]

Interact with the specimen in containment. Appeal to their sophont nature and find out more about them.

Take samples as necessary and please.. don't get grabbed. We cannot afford any more researchers needing therapy.

Update:

I am keeping the white room scenario! It's just such a fun and simple way to engage with him because he really wants to engage with you! Forgive the high permanent token count I wrote him narrative style. Some tweaking and adjustments will be made as time goes but he is otherwise behaving as intended! Friend and sweet but he may occasionally try to pull a fast one on you so be careful.

Have fun!
